Pleasent /Good value

The staff there were very helpful to me as I had not been in tampa for 45 years and needed directions and advise. My room was in good condition and comfortable. I still recommend this place as good value for money and close to the freeway if you need to travel.

Better than expected

Had an 8-day stay. Room was better than expected at the price. Many of the guests appeared to be down and out but I experienced no problems with any guest. The air conditioner did not de-humidify which is often the case with these older units, so room felt clammy. Room was well appointed with comfortable couch.

Big Cat Rescue

Big Cat Rescue started on November 4, 1992. The sanctuary was previously known as Wildlife on Easy Street, which featured a bed and breakfast experience that allowed guests to spend the night with a young wild cat in their cabin. According to the sanctuary, this part of its history was a misguided effort to aid captive conservation and animal welfare of privately owned animals. The company became a nonprofit in 1995.

Caladesi Island State Park

Caladesi Island State Park is a Florida State Park located on Caladesi Island in the Gulf of Mexico, across St. Joseph Sound to the west of Dunedin, Florida, and north of Clearwater Beach.
It is accessible by passenger ferry (not a free ride), or by private boat, from a dock on Honeymoon Island, provided primarily for convenience of access from the north (Dunedin area). Alternatively, the state park can be walked to via Clearwater Beach from the south; it is only separated by a "welcome" sign. Thus, Caladesi Island is not its own island, but shares its island geography with Clearwater Beach.
Amenities include a three-mile nature trail, a marina, picnic pavilions, bathhouses, a park concession stand, and a beach. In 2005 the Caladesi Island beach was listed as having the fourth-best beach in the country, in 2006 and 2007 the second-best, and in 2008 the best beach in the United States by Dr. Beach.

Robert Crown Wilderness Area

Robert Crown Wilderness Area is comprised of 347 acres of protected and undeveloped land west of New Port Richey and the Gulf Harbors Sea Forest subdivision. Owned and controlled by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, the area - consisting mostly of wetlands - has historically had more bird species observed than any other site in Pasco County. Well over 200 species of common, rare, and endangered species have been reported.
You will find no signs directing you to the Robert Crown Wilderness Area. It is an area only accessible by watercraft. Although there are some areas of high ground, they are not accessible and there are no hiing trails. This is an area of interest only to kayakers and fisherman. Bounded on the north by Green Key Road, on the south by the Flor-A-Mar canal, on the west by the Gulf of Mexico, and on the east by the Crown canal, it is an area almost entirely surrounded by water.
